14th October 2016. WIA Reform Group – News Letter Number 24

Those of you in VK5 will have had the opportunity to attend one of the information sessions delivered by WIA Directors Andrew Smith VK6AS and Paul Simmonds VK5PAS over the past week.

Hundreds of amateurs across VK5 and 6 have attended Andrew and Paul’s presentations.

Attendees have reported that these sessions have provided a very informative insight into the issues plaguing our WIA. Many amateurs did not realise how bad the situation really is….

Paul and Andrew will be in Albury/Wodonga on 14th November and then in Melbourne on the 15th November.

We also understand that visits to other states in Australia are being planned. We will keep you posted.

Please get along to one of these presentations to hear what Paul and Andrew have to say. It’s your opportunity to ask questions and get straight answers.

As we said last week, we need open, balanced information to be shared at clubs, on news broadcasts and in AR Magazine.

Please, write an email to the Editor of AR (editor@wia.org.au) and the National News Broadcast (nationalnews@wia.org.au) service asking that they publish the “other side of the story” (please copy us in on feedback@wiarg.org). Only with your voice will we overcome these draconian measures being taken by the Board to censor free speech.

Please forward this email to your local club and friends. Take a copy when you meet local amateurs for a coffee. If they contact Feedback@wiarg.org we can send them a newsletter direct.
